We have open spots in our summer art camp – for the first time in 18 years! If your child has loved camp in the past (or wanted to try it for the first time), now is the perfect moment to jump back in. We have a few spots available each week for the next four weeks—and we’d love to fill them with familiar faces and new friends!

  • ✨Drop-in days now available
  • ✨Bring-a-friend discount
  • ✨Flexible 3- or 4-day weeks
  • ✨Scholarships available for those who need a little help

Let us know if your artist wants to join us this week or next. We’re here and ready for creativity! Sign up now to secure their preferred session before it's full!
